1997 Ford Transit very clean and rust free, £1500 West Yorks

[discostew]

This isn't my van, I am advertising it on behalf of my MOT tester. I just thought it would be of interest to folks on here.






It is certainly one of the cleanest Transits I have seen for a while. It was used for wheelchair transport and looks like it has been stored undercover or well looked after. It has had a couple of bits of welding done under the back bumper. This was done by a professional welder, using genuine Ford panels. The engine is a 2.5 diesel and it has done about 90k.The seats and dashboard are all good and it has an original Ford radio cassette.

It is ideal for a camper conversion, or just to make into a cool old bus.

Please don't ring, email or message me about it, I can't help you. Ring Holme Valley MOT station on 01484 664799 and ask for Martin. Tell him Stewart with the old VWs sent you.

The van is near Huddersfield. Offer him £1500 and it's yours.
Oh, and if you do buy it, please post a build thread on here.

Cheers

Stewart

That's a 1997/1998 van. Looks tidy though, these are great vans.

Thanks for that, I'll edit the title.
I also forgot to mention that it has full MOT.

Looks like it already has some form of cabinet(s) installed, any ideas what? Any form of seating in the rear, did you look at that part of the van by any chance?

[discostew]

Don't get excited about the furniture in the back, I think it is just an old kitchen cupboard! Think of it as more of a blank canvas....

Tell him to go over the front bumper with a heat gun or blow torch, it will make it a different van.

Why what van will it turn it into? Sprinter, Viito, crafter?
Or will it just bring the oils out of the bumper and turn it nice and black again!
Sorry

Linseed oil can't beat it. Cheap and works a treat.
Especially on the Transit bumpers that are more grey than black.
Looks clean for one that age. Most have more rust than paint
